I recently purchased Adobe Streamline, a package that supposedly converts
image (scanned) files to vector files.  Unfortunately, I have not been
impressed at all with the vector files Streamline has created.  As a test, I
compared the time it took me to scan a line art drawing from our company's
draftsperson and convert it to vector format via Streamline and make it look
good in Freehand versus the time it took me to redraw the artwork myself
in Freehand.  Much to my disappointment, the Freehand file I drew took less
time and looked much better than what Streamline could accomplish.

Please comment if you have had similar disappointments with Streamline or
know someone who has.
